I read something on the football twitter about it being "Denard Robinson's first episode of Car Wash" on ESPN First take @10 or 10:30...Is this going to be a regular thing?  Did anyone see it?

Stephen A. Smith was trying to trap him into saying something bad about the NFL or even Michigan...but Denard didn't go for the bait.  He was classy, respectful and smiled the whole time.  Love that kid.

Stephen A. Smith never learned to use his indoor voice.  He also never learned to use his brain.

Also, what's with his utterly boring name?  Seriously, look at him trying to spice it up with "A" and "phen".  Really.... "Steve Smith"?  You can't make it in show business with a name like that.  All these damn celebrities named "Pheonix" and "Rebel"... sound like porn-o stars.

I can't wait to buy the game and play around with Denard and Devin together.  I'm thinking flee flickers and statue of liberty plays and multiple wins against SEC teams.

Are they normally staged?  This year will be the first time I'll ever buy that game (Madden is sufficient for me), so maybe they never use actual photos.  But his eyes seem to calm, Denard was much more intense when running in the open field.

But I love the Big House background, and it's great to have him on the cover.  Hopefully he sets up an autograph session shortly after the draft.

I wonder if the value to Denard from this can be quantified. Aside from any money he's paid directly, it raises his profile and makes him more valuable for endorsement deals and such.
